About This Blog (Pinned Post)

Hey I'm Dizzy. I'm just here to post about stuff I enjoy. I've been from LiveJournal (during my Backstreet Boys days), to here (during FFXV's haydays), to Twitter (after this place imploded from the nsfw ban) I am still on Twitter but it's kind of messy over there right now.

The only fandom I actually claim is FFXV. Other things I'm just a fan of and enjoy without being involved with the fandoms associated with them.

I'm an older fan and I don't have time for internet BS.

I love Final Fantasy (X, XV, VIII, XIV, XVI and X are my top favorites and I have played all of them except for XI), Kirby, Persona 5, Animal Crossing, Boo from the Super Mario games, and JRPGs in general.

I love horror movies and novels, all genres of music, anime and animated shows/cartoons (I don't watch too much live action television or movies)

I collect video game merchandise, video game soundtracks, PVC figures, Nendoroids, video game books (artbooks, strategy guides, etc)

This blog used to be just a FFXV blog but I have decided to open it up to all my interests after it's sat kind of dormant for awhile.

All posts and reblogs will be properly tagged. I always use proper tags for archive purposes. If I have any tags of my own to add to a post (comments, etc) they will always be at the end of the tags.

I don't want my screenshots, actual pictures I have taken of stuff I own, etc posted anywhere else. If you absolutely have to repost something of mine, credit me or provide a link back please.

The ability to submit questions is open but anonymous is turned off. Any asks that are answered will be posted publicly.

My inbox is only open to users I follow. If I don't follow you and you want to ask me something please submit it as a question.

About Demon King of the Desert

First, let me say it shocks me how swiftly this story got off the ground and gained this crazy following.

It beat Contract out of the water in less than a year and all from people who don't know or care too much I'm using a character from another franchise.

I appreciate that all. Truly.

It's amazing to read comments from folks who said 'they didn't know about Overlord at all but certainly love the character or are tempted to check it out'. Or they just become Demiurge fans in general. ♥ That's amazing. I love it, as I do feel his character gets little to no attention in the source material.

However, problems are arising on and off on my other social media accounts, so I figure I'd address them here.

-- Demiurge is from Overlord. An anime/ Light Novel Isekai series. I know one person said they couldn't get my notes to load well in chapter 1, so they missed that part when they found my art on DA, so I'll post that comment again here. Yes, he is his own entity in that story, and has no relation to the source material. I could change his physical appearance as I have some of his abilities, and he'd be 100% mine. As is in that story, he's only about 50%. So keep that in mind. -- The story took a bit of a backseat lately because of other projects I'm interested in and, also, the end of the year is just all around hectic for me. I barely have the emotional or physical energy to work on stories/art as I'd like and mostly do other things. Is it on hiatus? No. But I can't say I know when I'll pump out another chapter. The last one was horribly rushed, and I didn't like that. I kinda hate how much like 'filler' it reads to be honest. I do have a small memo pad jotted down to explain the easy end to the story. It's there. I have it. But writing the scenes to get there is a challenge. Bear with me. lol I have ADHD and sticking to one project out of many is hard. Very hard. -- Unless you think you can use HTML to downsize a proper gif/image, do NOT submit it into your comments. I just had to block someone who kept putting large images from Overlord into the comments and it was getting annoying. It may look fine on mobile, but I use PC way more than mobile. Call me old-fashioned, but I don't use my phone unless I'm away from the PC. Again, the story is NOT from that universe. At all. Do not make references to it. -- I do not want children near my mature works or my space at ALL. If you cannot handle the themes of this story without writing/thinking goofy things, then it's obviously not for you. I don't want you reading my stuff if it explicitly states 18+ and you're under 18 or just emotionally immature. -- The Alpha/Omega is a theme presented in the story with very little in your face A/B/O dynamics. Sexual themes are not as frequent as I had originally planned. The main reason for this is the story was meant to be 10 chapters at best and come to a swift, and more horny conclusion. I was writing it away from Overlord because I wanted to heal from fandom abuse at the time. It was a cathartic piece that blossomed into it's own world. Like all my stories, however, it grew legs and ran off on its own--giving more story than sexual themes. Odd as it is to say: I love sex to be given at the right time. I love the build up of it. But I put the tags in there to warn there are scenes of it all the same. It might sound like there's sex in every chapter, but I promise, there's not. -- I do not want it posted anywhere other than AO3 or Wattpad! As of current, it's only posted on those two sites. If it ever gets reposted anywhere else, it is not my doing. So please. Notify me and or report it!

I thank you all again for your support. ♥ I will return to it when possible. I promise!

Something Something Something, Red Freesias.

OR: The slightly embarassing-ish result (that's sort of a conclusion?) that I reached after I spent several days thinking in my own way about how things would change if I let it slip that I'm tired of running a blog, while on a road lined with red freesias.

I hate giving up. Like, I'm really bad at sticking to goals, but I hate actually giving them up.

Redfreesias is something I started on a whim because I (in retrospect, rather arrogantly) thought I could share translations that properly showcased the charms of songs I loved. Quickly, it became a blog that translated songs other idol fans loved, because I've always known firsthand how frustrating it is not to know what a song you love is saying. After a couple of years (in which I graduated from high school and college and had increasingly less free time), I planned on stopping, but that would be giving up, so instead it became a blog where I just...self-indulgently posted things I liked at a carefree pace.

Or rather, I tried my best to think of it as a blog like that, but I really can't.

I do my best not to harbor unrealistically high self-regard of my personal relevance as a translator. I've translated a considerable number of songs, but the quality thereof varies considerably, and the truth of the matter is that most of those songs have considerably more-accessible and much more-palpable translations available elsewhere. Conversely, this is something that in the past has brought me endless peace of mind, because 1) if nobody expects anything, you can't disappoint them, 2) they're not likely to demand things and 3) they can't get angry at you.

Without going too into my personal background, all three of those things are incredibly stressful to me, and having people (usually on anon) express feelings to that extent is probably why I've done my best to make my blog a unilateral existence with as little interaction as possible.

Still, as odd as it sounds, I need to admit that I somehow, illogically, expected something.

To be honest, I'm not sure what it was. Praise? Compliments? Maybe something as simple as someone to gush about songs with.

I wanted the blog to be me shouting into the void, but I wanted the void to shout back (but only ever positively).

Typing that out, even I'm aware of how impossibly, obnoxiously contradictory that sounds.

And so I quietly began to dislike my own blog. At a time when so many of my fellow Americans are either unemployed or forced to work in the frontlines of a pandemic, I'm very fortunate to be able to work from home. But logging on and dealing with tech issues I dislike for work and then doing it again "for fun" is decidedly not fun, and so I quietly began to dislike my blog even more.

When something you (and only you) decide of your own initiative to do isn't fun anymore, the rational thing is to stop. But I hate giving up, and so the thought of just...ending the blog, with a whimper rather than a bang, seemed detestable.

But that's just stubbornness, right? SKE and 48 legend Matsui Jurina promised years ago not to graduate until after summer of 2021, but she announced an October graduation for this year. As a devoted fan, all I could think of was good. I'm glad for her.  Overcompetitive, ever-going, eternal-sun Matsui Jurina chose to stop. She prefaced her graduation statement with "I want to muster up courage and take a step forward"–because even when the end looks like a whimper, even when it might look like going back on your word, sometimes it's brave to stop. Sometimes it’s best to put your own likes and dislikes, volatile and everchanging as they may be, first. There's a line that I've come to really like in Momusu's quintessential graduation song Never Forget You that more or less goes "Was it just by chance that we met? Then our goodbye is also just chance."

Redfreesias is something I started as a whim, so isn't it alright to end it on a whim?

Anyway, all of this is to say that I still really like idols, but maintaining this tumblr isn't fun for me anymore, so I'll stop. To anyone who read through this navel-gazing atrocity of a post, thank you. For previously accidentally translations that I never got to uploading, please check the Wayback machine.

rules ! .. :)

general rules

+don’t copy, modify, translate, or repost my works. all works are written by me only.

+ here is the link to my carrd with my dni & byf

+the one thing i ask is that you are respectful to me and others who may interact on this blog. this blog is 16+!

+no blank blogs (no posts, tmblr default header & pfp)!! i just don't feel comfortable with them. unless you have a personalized bio or give access to pages (like your following or likes) to show you are not a bot.

+you can assume my works are gender neutral unless stated otherwise in the "notes & warnings"

+lowercase in works are often intentional, mostly because i don’t have automatic caps on when i’m writing with my phone

+if a link isn't working or if i have incorrectly labeled, mislabeled, or tw/cw something, please message me

+occasionally i will write for a character not listed anywhere aka levi ackerman (pls i have been and am in love with him) so there’s that (other random chars may be added later on)

+if you have questions or just wanna talk, don’t be scared to. my inbox is open but please keep in mind that i do not accept any asks that may describe triggering events and that i am not certified to give out professional advice. anons are also welcome!

requesting rules

+i am no longer taking requests. you can disregard this last section of my rules. they will be kept here in the case that i do open requests.

+i take requests and suggestions. i only write by inspiration meaning there may be times where the result does not exactly pertain to the details of the request.

+sfw only. i don’t accept nsfw or dark content nor will i create it.

+i write: fluff, angst (with happy ending), crack, hurt/comfort, reader inserts, fem! and g/n!reader, only fandoms and characters listed in my masterlist, alternate universes, reader with specific quirk (bnha) or technique (jjk)

+i don’t write: dark themes (e.g. rape, incest, traumatizing events, etc.), readers with a certain description (e.g. body type, disorder, sexuality, ethnicity, etc.), poly relationships, character x character, male!reader, personal ocs, reactions to pranks (see me if you’d like more info on the prank part before submitting)

+so i got this weird thing going on with my bllk blog but i do accept requests for bllk, just on my main only. ig if you want specifically bllk content only, then you can see @karabito but otherwise, i’ll probably be posting bllk content here and updating masterlists on both blogs

+this should be explanatory but please don’t send in requests while they’re closed or while i’m not accepting any. they will be deleted

+i have the right to refuse any type of request whether it’s because i don’t feel motivated enough to do it or because it is something that i do not write or am comfortable with

+these rules are subject to change so i recommend checking back before requesting (for everybody’s comfort) and you can request as many times as you want!

+it could take months for me to complete a request but if i see that you have submitted the same request to somebody else and they have done it before i did, i will delete your request because i do not want to be accused of stealing ideas and it is also discouraging
